The primary goal of this site is to provide mature, meaningful discussion about the Vancouver Canucks. However, we all need a break some time so this forum is basically for anything off-topic, off the wall, or to just get something off your chest! This forum is named after poster Creeper, who passed away in July of 2011 and was a long time member of the Canucks message board community.

I saw "Alice in Wonderland" (3D) on the weekend - liked it a lot. Great effects, pace, reasonable story.

For those that haven't seen Avatar yet, (anyone?) I didn't care for the '2D' version, but really liked the '3D' version when I saw it a 2nd time.

I'm thinking that 3D is the way to go for a lot of movies, and with 3D TV coming out soon, I'm thinking I'm not alone. It used to be that I'd see the 'Blockbusters' in the theatre, but now I'm mostly watching 3D (the 2 above and Caroline were the last three movies I saw on the big screen).

I am a Cameron fan...but not sure about this particular flick. I'll probably just check it out but some of my friends really liked it or they hated it...so I'm undecided presently.

Saw The Runaways last night. Not bad. Not the deepest rock'n roll flick but the 70's was a great time for music. Dakota Fanning played an awesome Cherry Bomb and Michael Shannon is a creepy exploiting Kim Fowley (he's also in the now in production comicbook movie Johah Hex). And the director is a Canuck

With Spidey Jr. becoming quite the budding lead guitarist I'm trying to expose him to some good stuff (yes, lotsa live music too).

On a side note. If you get the chance to see Under the Great Northern Lights by the White Stripes it's a pretty cool doc about their Canadian tour in 2007. It play at last years Toronto Film festival and this year at some Rep Cinemas but it is also now available on DVD

Trouble, you piece of shyte, stop downloading for free and ruining it all for all of us that pay for it. Mind you, I am not opposed to downloading, just not for decent movies that should be supported (vote with your dollar!). I BTed the miserable 2010 and now actually hate John Cussack because of it ). I have an amazing home theatre now but nothing beats going to a premiere of a great anticipated movie and feeling the audiences energy (almost like going to Rocky Horror Picture Show here in he 80's at the Roxy w/Nash the Slash). Good Tymes...Good Tymes.

If you don't have qualms watching a Polanski movie... The Ghost Writer is really exceptional.

I was bored of Avatar after twenty minutes because once the luster of the effects was gone you were left with poorly written and cold characters rendered by poor performances, criminal dialogue and a paint by numbers story arch.

Liked Shutter Island purely on cinematic style really.

Add me to those who were really surprised by Zombieland, a really charming and fun film.
